NG vs 20V

[ed armstrong]

I'll tell you what I'm thinking of eventually doing to
my 85 Coupe with a KX engine.

Bolt on the turbo and exhaust manifold from an early
Audi turbo diesel. Also necessary will be a 5000 turbo
intake manifold. Strictly bolt on. should take a day
or two (or three) once all the parts are assembled
(and I've got them all!). Engine will remain in place,
although such a set up will need a stronger clutch at
some point

Should be good for 160 hp at a safe 5 psi boost
